Off label Ketamine Therapy has literally offered a new life to some afflicted with treatment resistant depression (TRD) and PTSD, part of a Global Suicide Epidemic that claims a life approximately every 40 seconds.

"This is our first step in the rollout of our business plan that calls for us to establish Fifth Dimension Therapeutics™ Mind Care Clinics and Telehealth Operations in multiple geographic locations," stated W. David Jones, a KAYS Senior Advisor and driving force behind the company's developing psychedelic operations. "Ketamine, and soon psilocybin, offer breakthrough opportunities to effectively confront debilitating treatment resistant mental health conditions like depression and PTSD. It is the potential to help people while providing an exciting business opportunity motivates us."

"I, and the entire Holistic team, are excited to work with the Kaya team and implement the Fifth Dimension Therapeutics ketamine therapy program. We look forward to working with them in and potentially beyond Florida," said Dr. Anya Temer. "We are pleased to work together to innovate psychedelic care delivery."

"We are working diligently to develop the treatment experiences we believe will most benefit our target customers. We believe that being able to work with Dr. Temer and the Total Holistic Center team will certainly contribute significantly to the high standards of treatment to which we aspire," concluded KAYS' CEO Craig Frank. "As our cannabis activities shift to more rapidly growing overseas markets, we plan to focus more of our domestic U.S. efforts to establishing Fifth Dimension Therapeutics™. The electricity in the air has returned."

About Ketamine Therapy

Ketamine was FDA approved it as an anesthetic for people in 1970 and was used in treating injured soldiers on the battlefields in the Vietnam War. Since that time Emergency responders began to give it to an agitated patient who, for example, they have rescued from a suicide attempt, which has led Doctors to realize that the drug had powerful effects against depression and suicidal thoughts.

Today, Ketamine has been repurposed as an off-label analgesic and antidepressant. Extensive investigation of its rapid anti-depressive effects has been a breakthrough offering a potential lifesaving reprieve to those suffering from Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD) and has also been shown to reduce suicidal ideation in depressed patients at risk for suicide. Similarly, the administration of ketamine was effective at reducing depressive symptoms, acute suicidal behavior, and mood lability in youth with TRD and bipolar disease.

In 2019, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved a nasal spray called esketamine, derived from ketamine-an anesthetic that has made waves for its surprising antidepressant effect. Intranasal esketamine is the only form of ketamine that has been FDA-approved as a treatment for TRD. However, Physicians have been prescribing racemic ketamine off-label to patients with depression for at least two decades. Additionally, Telehealth providers deliver oral tablets of ketamine that are taken at home for convenience with remote monitoring equipment and protocols for safety (also an off-label use). Using an approved drug for unapproved purposes (such as Ozempic for weight loss) is legal with the patient's informed consent.
